From the New York Times bestselling author of House on Fire, a breakneck thriller that marries the dynastic opulence of Succession with the tense and disorienting spycraft of The Americans.
Paul Brightman is a man on the run, living under an assumed name in a small New England town with a million-dollar bounty on his head. When his security is breached, Paul is forced to flee into the New Hampshire wilderness to evade Russian operatives who can seemingly predict his every move.
Six years ago, Paul was a rising star on Wall Street who fell in love with a beautiful photographer named Tatyana—unaware that her father was a Russian oligarch and the object of considerable interest from several U.S. intelligence agencies. Now, to save his own life, Paul must unravel a decades-old conspiracy that extends to the highest reaches of the government.
Rivaling the classic spy novels of the Cold War, The Oligarch’s Daughter is built for the frightening world we live in now.
Joseph Finder delivers a fast-paced thriller that will keep you on edge from start to finish. Packed with suspense, sharp twists, and a chilling sense of paranoia, The Oligarch’s Daughter masterfully combines the intrigue of a classic spy novel with the urgency of today’s political landscape. Finder’s writing pulls you into a world of conspiracy and betrayal, where survival means questioning everything and trusting no one.
This is the kind of book you won’t want to put down—and one that will leave you thinking long after the final page.
